Industry in Developing Countries (1988) surveys the empirical evidence on industrialisation in developing countries and relates it to the relevant economic theory as well as discussing alternative strategies of industrialisation and the range of policy instruments available to implement these strategies. In particular, the book focuses on the three theories of Third World industrialisation that have predominated – the structuralist, the Marxist and the neo-classical. This book emphasises the discrepancies between the newly industrialising countries of South East Asia and the poorest countries of Africa. Given such heterogeneity, establishing appropriate criteria for assessing industrial performance in different countries is a problem, and the author pays closes attention to establishing such criteria.
